Inhibitor of L-aromatic amino acid decarboxylase; crosses blood brain barrier. Also inhibits GABA aminotransferase, as well as other pyridoxal-phosphate-requiring enzymes, by forming the 3-hydroxybenzylhydrazone of that cofactor.
Serotonin (5-HT) is a neurotransmitter with important roles in the regulation of neurobehavioral processes, particularly those regulating affect in humans. Drugs that potentiate serotonergic neurotransmission by selectively inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin (SSRIs) are widely used for the treatment of
Serotonin is a major neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). Dysregulation of serotonin transmission in the CNS is reported to be related to different psychiatric disorders in humans including depression, impulsive aggression and anxiety disorders. The most frequently prescribed
Dystonia represents the third most common movement disorder in humans. At least 15 genetic loci (DYT1-15) have been identified and some of these genes have been cloned. TOR1A (formally DYT1), the gene responsible for the most common primary hereditary dystonia
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous and highly heritable condition with multiple aetiologies. Although the biological mechanisms underlying ASD are not fully understood, evidence suggests that dysregulation of serotonergic systems play an important role in ASD psychopathology.

The role of dopamine D1-like receptors (DR) in the regulation of renal Na+ transporters, natriuresis, and blood pressure is well established. However, the involvement of the angiotensin 1-7 (ANG 1-7)-Mas receptor in the regulation of Na+ balance and blood pressure
Serotonin is stored in cells and metabolized by MAO, influencing CNS, GI, and platelet functions.
